No matter how long it takes, President Donald Trump “will have his team,” Sen. Rick Scott (R-FL) said on Monday amid the battle with Democrats over swiftly confirming the remaining nominees for Trump’s Cabinet.
“UPDATE: Today, we’re voting to move forward on @TulsiGabbard’s nomination, & we’re one step closer to getting her CONFIRMED,” Scott said on Monday.
“Democrats are forcing us to jump through hoops to confirm Trump’s team, despite the fact that Obama had TWICE as many noms confirmed by this time in his admin,” he pointed out. “We won’t give up! No matter how long this takes President Trump will have his team!”

Indeed, Trump is still awaiting confirmation of several of his Cabinet members, although several have made it through. Secretary of State Marco Rubio was the first Cabinet nominee confirmed by the Senate on inauguration day, but battles over others have been a bit more contentious. Days later, the Senate confirmed Pete Hegseth as Defense Secretary in a razor-thin 51-50 vote, with Vice President JD Vance breaking the tie.
Other Cabinet nominees who have since been confirmed include Scott Turner as Secretary of Housing and Urban Development, Russ Vought as Director of the Office of Management and Budget, Doug Collins as Secretary of Veterans Affairs, Pam Bondi as Attorney General, Chris Wright as Energy Secretary, Doug Burgum as Interior Secretary, Lee Zeldin as EPA Administrator, Sean Duffy as Secretary of Transportation, Scott Bessent as Treasury Secretary, Kristi Noem as Homeland Security Secretary, and John Ratcliffe as CIA Director.

At Last, a Company With Integrity in the Gold IRA Industry
For several years, I’ve been vetting out precious metals companies in search of the best. I believe in gold and silver but it’s hard to find integrity in the Gold IRA industry. The vast majority operate with shady tactics and gigantic spreads that take advantage of Americans who simply want to protect their life’s savings.
I’ve found a handful that I like and I’ve worked with some of them. By no means would I “unrecommend” them because, again, I vetted them out and found them to be above the fold. Unfortunately, it isn’t hard to be better than the rest when the rest are so darn awful.
After years of searching, I finally found a company that truly operates with integrity. Augusta Precious Metals has three important attributes that set them far above the competition:
- Non-Commissioned Sales Team: I cannot stress how important and unique this is. With just about every other company in the Gold IRA industry, the sales teams make commission from every account they open. This means they steer their clients toward the gold and silver products with the highest commission. With Augusta Precious Metals, the team is solely focused on putting the best gold and silver for their clients into their IRA. They get paid to serve the best interests of the Gold IRA client, NOT their own commission pay.
- Incredibly Low Fees: Most Americans would be shocked if they knew the spread other Gold IRA companies charge. Augusta charges just 5% versus up to 45% elsewhere.
- No Pressure, No Gimmicks: There’s an understanding among most in the Gold IRA industry that fear and pressure is the way to go. Augusta Precious Metals takes a sober approach when working with clients because they hold integrity in the highest possible regard. This is why they don’t offer gimmicks like “free” or “bonus” silver. It’s also why they do not apply pressure tactics to get quick sales. Their educational and transparent approach to doing business is exceedingly rare in the Gold IRA industry.
